A perfect day for walking, driving OF
horseback riding.
The Pleasant Hours Club gives another
hop some evening this week.
The valentine ball at the Theatre last
evening was very largely attended.
Mussin and Trebelli are among the at
fractions at the Theatre next week.
And still the Coffee John" establish
ment is under guard. Will this go on
forever.
The City Council meets tonight to de-
eide who is to have the Warm Springs

The full particulars OF the election at

partment to-day.
There was no G.. =. train from the
West to-day, it having been abandoned
on account OF snow.
The Grand Jury yesterday reported to
Judge Zane that they had found eight
indictments-six under the United States
laws and two under the Territorial stat
utes.
Thirteen" always was a low, mean
unlucky number, but it never made
itself more unpopular than it did yester-
day by ranging itself at the first OF every
Ogden Peoples party vote. See returns.
The United States Supreme Court de-
cided in the Snow case that polygamy is

house mentioned in the ghost story in
yesterdays DEMOCRAT, and that he
knows nothing .pf the strange visitor.

DEMOCRAT reporter claimed that they

From the cases so far brought up in
the District Court this term it would APP
pear that the Mormons have adopted a
new set of tactics. Heretofore it was
considered very worng for man to plead
guilty, even though he took the stand
against himself and acknowledged his
guilt. This year, however, the rule
seems to be to plead guilty and trust in
the Lord. Truly, let us again remark,
we are peculiar people,
The interest in the proceedings of the
Third District Court this term seems to
be higher than it has ever been before.

packed with spectators and almost every
seat inside the railing is taken. What
the attraction is cannot be guessed.
There are no pretty cohab. daughters or
wives in attendance, there is nothing OF
especial interest in any OF the cases so
far called and, in fact, the session is less
interesting than any OF its predecessors.
1t may be, however, that the brethren
who are now being cinched have more
friends than those who went before, and
if there is anything that cohab.' s friend
likes it is to see him sent to the Pen.
